High Five Facts - Giganotosaurus

The video provides fascinating facts about the Gigantosaurus, a massive carnivorous dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period. Discovered in Patagonia, Argentina, only 70% of its skeleton has been found. Despite its size, its brain was small, akin to a banana. The Gigantosaurus could reach up to 13 meters in length and weigh between 6 and 13 tons. Its teeth were sharp, ideal for a carnivorous diet. It could run at speeds of 20 mph, potentially outrunning a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Like other dinosaurs, it reproduced by laying eggs.
